Bio:
Pat has dabbled in different forms of creativity most of her life. Recently, after retiring from full-time work, she began to create with more intent. Always enjoying working with anything ‘fibrous’, particularly paper and fabric, her recent work has focused on print-making. She’s enjoyed learning original linocut print making - turning her designs in to Lino plates and printing with relief ink. She has a fondness for mid-century modern design elements and color pallets, incorporating these into those linocut designs. Pat’s prayer regarding her work is that each piece speaks light, hope, and blessing. On her 68th birthday, during her regular morning meditation, this prayer came to her and she has prayed this prayer for her life and her work: Tune my heart to sing Your Grace; Tune my spirit to the music of heaven; Tune my mind to hear Your Voice; Tune my being by the turn of Your hand.
